Update old Compaq to linux..?
#4
Hi Fred,

I Understand,
But I would 1st though get it going like now, then when working look at going wireless.

I don't have any experience of that card, I have just what was ever in the Laptop/PC
personally I would look at doing it simply, use a USB WiFi Dongle.
You can look for info on compatible devices here.
((somebody else might have recommendations ))

From what I have seen "Broadcom" based devices can be a bit problematic.
